Greetings

I am a student of Adventist history (currently completing a PhD on William Miller at the University of Queensland) with a particular interest in 19th century American Religious History (Mormonism, Millerism, Adventism etc.). I am also interested in Early and Medieval Church History (I have published an article on the 12th century mystic Hildegard of Bingen). I have the privilege of lecturing on SDA history, Ellen G. White, and Church history generally; in the Faculty of Theology at an Helderberg College in South Africa. All opinions on this blog are personal and should not be taken as representing the views of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, nor of Helderberg College.

Where, in the world, are you? Student…teacher…but where? I’d really like to talk to you about some things related to my doctoral work.

I have been scratching around and have come across references to the Israel Dammon trial, and his connection to Ellen Harmon and James White. We did not cover this in the class I did in EG White some years ago, and am wondering what to make of it?

I find you Blog sight interesting. I was a SDA for 30 years and then out for 20. I came back after leaving the Church of God 7th Day. I ran into one of their belief that made me reconcider my membership with them. I was studying the SDA research web sight and ran into an old doctrine from the EGW era. It is “The Return to Jerusalem” and the 1k reign here on earth. It plays right into the recent “Christian” productions of all the “Left Behind” concept. Try to imagine how this might be misconstrued as fulfilment of prophecy. “One left behind and one taken”.

Hello,
I am an elder at Capital Spanish SDA Church. My reason for writing to you is that; we have created a blogspot for the Adult Sabbath School Lesson and wish to be added to your blogroll, and at the same time we would add your blog to ours. With this blog we are able to bring the lesson to people in a more visual and interactive way. That way people are more likely to read and be filled with the fruits that the lesson brings by interacting through comments.
Please let us know if this is to your interest and if we are added to your Blogs for thinkning Adventists.
